ABOUT SEATTLE LIFESTYLE AND DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHER ANNA NODOLF
I’m Anna. A family girl; love hangin with mine and love photographing yours.
Based out of Seattle, I’ve been photographing people in love for over 13 years.
When I’m not behind the camera, you might find me drinking matcha or strolling the farmers market with my husband and daughter - we call her The Peej. We, quite honestly, can’t get enough of each other.
People say I’ve never met a stranger - I find that becoming fast friends helps clients feel comfortable being photographed, makes them more relaxed and settle into completely being themselves. This results in more authentic, real life photos. Which is totes my jam.
I want to be part of your family for the day. Hang out with you guys, play with the kids, get to know you so that I can best tell the story of your crew, through my pictures. When I say, “just do you and I’ll be there every step of the way to document it,” this is what I mean. I pay close attention to those little (and big) things you do. The way you hold your baby's toes to help calm her down. How you sweep the hair off your son’s face to give him that quick peck on the forehead, reminding him you think of him throughout the day, all day.
How much would you love to have ZERO stress about your next photo shoot? If you didn't have to worry about picking the perfect outfits, making your house flawless, or... if you don't have to worry about your kids being good. If JUST BEING is what's good. When I photograph you, I want to provide a snapshot of what your life is like RIGHT NOW. Like a time capsule that you can open whenever you like to remember just how a normal day felt with those you love most.
I can't wait to take pictures of your beautiful life!

what i stand for
I am an extroverted tomboy slash anxious mom with a deep love for pizza, newsies, and summer camp.
I studied interior design and art history.
I've always been drawn to real-life moments and super obsessed with studying work from the greats. I am constantly learning and pushing myself to hone my craft. I basically want to feel like I'm in grad school for the rest of my days.
I believe in love.
I believe it should be celebrated. Loudly, quietly, and all the ways in between. And I believe in documenting it. In a real, honest, and most beautiful way that I possibly can.
I believe in representation and inclusion.
I believe that our world is better when it is big and brimming with life from a variety of people with various experiences, backgrounds, and ideas. I believe in embracing people for who they are and loving fiercely.
I believe in real-life photos.
I believe that the best photos come from capturing the love and togetherness that makes your family so special, from picking blueberries to playing together at golden gardens or your own backyard. As your personal photographer, I'll be there to document those moments that make your family unique and amazing.
